Ever notice that when people start complaining about nerfs, the CSR's and DEV.s never reply?
Thunderheart said 2 things.. people started in and he never answers back. It's a waste of time for anyone to even say anything.
Yeah... TH along with the rest of the "developers" are cowards. They just hit and run. Why not just lock these posts if your going to run away?

OMG, why are you doing this, I spent millions on these guns so you could make them like crap. The more you nerf the less people you will see playing.

basically thats the only point that matters. they have everything in this damn game cost money...taking a **edit** probably has a price
yet they keep taking money out of our hands for no reason. I mean people play long hours and its alot of painstaking work to save enough to go buy some of these only to have SOE steal the money from them. I mean Thunderheart why don't the devs just take everyones money away every month , that is the only way to balance this economy. Or why dont you just let it stay a "real" player economy and let it play it's way out.
Because I have to tell ya , with thousands of these guns out there on every server. What purpose does it server to get rid of 2-5% of them just cause they are in crates?

I have a simple question for TH. If you never had any experience with CH when the nerf for that was issued and you have no crafting experience currently, what exactly have you done while playing this game?
Crafting professions
Artisan
Architect
Armorsmith
Bio-Engineer
Chef
Doctor
Medic
Combat Medic
Droid Engineer
Merchant
Smuggler
Tailor
Weaponsmith
That's 14 professions you admit you have no first hand experience using when you factor in CH. What exactly do you have experience with in the game, running around killing things with various weapons?

This seems to have been avoided left out. What will happen to crates of food and other things (XG Mines) that have this problem? They're taking up room in my house and bank. If they're now worthless let me know so i can clear them out.

I believe he has stated he grindedmaster commando and even admitted he wasstacking shots (although he was unaware it wasnt fair before bleeds got nerfed)
Face it thought 99.999999999999% of the dev team (other then TH who grinded)
Log in a click the "what do i want to master and play instantly" button, having no knowledge of the grind

Why would the devs say anything? They want this game to be nothing like the movie.. I'm sure they'd be happy if we all ran around with sticks and rocks and tried to kill eachother like that.
Can't have a gun if it kills in the game.. nooo wouldn't want that.
What's that? Your creature is tough? Oooo gotta nerf it.
Hey lets make the AT-ST's for PvP ONLY.. it's only fair because since CH's can use Maulers as tanks.. rr-r-r-right...
If they want to make this game like the movie, lets look at a few things..
- If a wookie were to even slap you, you'd be flying across the room. But in SWG, a wookie can't do crap to you unless he's a TK.
- light sabers KILL in one shot. end of story.
- seems in the movies, one shot from a gun would take any trooper or rebel out, but in this game it takes loads because of the defense and dodge stack.
- AT-ST's were taken out with ease by the Ewoks.. yet in game if you tap an AT-ST, he shreds you with one blast.. not to mention the 55k + HAM.
can anyone else think of things that arent consistant with the movie?

Thunderheart, if I understand the changes correctly, the fix is still not adequate. Most of the people that have crates of pre-nerf weapons are weaponsmiths and almost every weaponsmith in existence puts the item stats in the name. If the weapons have their stats changed when pulled from a crate you now have a weapon that is unsellable ona vendor. Most customers only look at the name of the weapon to determine statsso if someone puts those weapons on a vendor, they're going to end up with confused and unhappy customers when they finally realize the named stats don't match the actual stats.
I don't think this solution is good for anyone and when you couple this with overall feeling of dread that most crafters have about the experimentation changes on Test Center, I think there's going to be a large number of unhappy players when Publish 7 goes live. I understand your position and responsibilities so I hopethat you, as the players advocate, can somehow intervene to ensure that these weapons have the original stats when pulled from a crate.
"Help me Thunderheart, you are my only hope...."
